true, but i expect the strategy is now going to be to 'flood the zone' with people pretending to have been a redactor, laying accusations against political enemies and all the usual trump targets like media and hollywood, clog it up & steer clear of Trump or anyone Trump has business deals with.

Maria has been accused over the years of fabricating her story that she had gone to the FBI. After finding the document in the trove, I called her. She broke down in tears.

i love how horrible this is, and also wonder how this change might affect boomer influencer types, whose current method to get ahead in the attention economy is: to engagement-farm by posting transphobia every 3-5 days

The ban on puberty blockers here in New Zealand has been also halted in court with a preliminary injunction because it's blatantly fucking transphobic, so the decision will now have to go through our courts. Weird how a TERF NYTimes writer just left that out!

is this kinda like how Epstein had to throw a big party full of influentials to "demonstrate-into-reality" that he was now back as part of polite society?
